Abstract

Today, the one single subject that has acquired wide polemical debate throughout the world is the debate on privatization, on its consequences and impacts on various economic strata of people as well as on education in Indian society. Privatization of education in India introduced new policies and programmes to increase employment, outcome and income opportunities and achieve economic development at National and International level. It has brought about a rapid change in the educational scenario of India. Privatization in education encourages the individual and society to establish educational institutions to meet the growing demand for education. As a result private educational institutes are growing day by day throughout the country. The paper reveals an attempt to analyse the role of privatization in education and its impacts on society, inclusively of Patna Town. I decided to make my study a micro type, to probe into a definite area, several people of different backgrounds, which agitate them to oppose or support the process of privatization. In this paper, I have also discussed about why our govt. in recent times is thinking more about privatization of education. I also discussed the positive and negative impacts of this issue and what are the possible solutions before us to deal with this issue.
